View Structure Details—New

You can view the structure details using Product Management Search, with the component details appearing in a side panel.

Navigate to Tasks > Product Management Experience > Search Products and use the new interface to find and view item structures.

Note: To use this feature, you must enable the feature Search Product Management Content Using the Redwood User Experience.

In the search results, you'll see a structure presence indicator (structure icon) that lets you access the item structure. On navigating to the structure, you can use additional indicators to explore subassemblies. You can choose to view the entire structure or focus on specific levels.

The item structure grid shows current effective revision of the parent item and each component. These entities of each component display values of the component's current revision - item attributes, extensible flexfields, reference designators, substitutes, and component attributes including read-through attributes from the item.

Here's how you view structure details:

In the Tasks panel drawer, click Product Management Experience > Search Products. The Product Management Item Search Page appears.
Select Item from the Product Management Search drop-down list.
Select a view that's configured to show structure data presence indicators.
Search for the item on which you want to view the structure details.
In the search results click the Item Structures structure icon in the Has structures column, to view the structure.
You can sort and filter the structure based on these read-through attributes to analyze the structure without exporting to Excel.
You can also resize or hide, columns in the structure table. However, the modification doesn't persist when you navigate away from the page.

Structure Grid

Here are some actions you can perform from the structure grid:

View the basic details of the component on the header, including the lifecycle phase of the item and the revision..
Select different views created by your administrator through Configure Views. The view can contain item operational attributes, item extensible flexfields, component level attributes, or component descriptive flexfields.
Toggle between the first level and level view.
View the levels displayed on a structure.
View the progress indicator when the data is loading.
Apply filters on the structure (filter supports item and item description).
Export the selected columns and rows or all.
Detach the table to view in full screen mode.
Navigate to the classic item interface using the link on the item.
- If you've navigated to the structure grid from the Product Development work area, the item will be displayed in Product Development.
- If you've navigated to the structure grid from the Product Information Management or the Concept Design work area, the item will be displayed in Product Information Management.
Copy items to the clipboard.
View the total count of rows in the structure and the number of selected rows.
Hide and unhide columns.
Resize rows and columns.
Sort columns in an ascending or descending order.
Select multiple rows, columns, or cells.

Reference Designators and substitute components are additional attributes available in the structure grid. Use these attributes in existing views or to create new views. Select and click the data presence indicator on the reference designator and substitute component columns of a structure to view details in the side panel drawer. Separate tabs are available for reference designators and substitute components. Though global descriptive flexfields are always visible for both reference designators and substitute components in the side panel drawer, the context-sensitive descriptive flexfields aren't visible for both these entities in this release.

You can also:

View reference designators as a range, if a range indicator has been configured in Manage Items Structure Type Details page. For more details, see Configure Reference Designator Options.
Search for the structure component based on the reference designator. However, remember to include the Reference Designator Search attribute in the views you create to search for components using the reference designator.

Note: If you’ve configured range indicators for reference designators before 24D, you must run the Product Management Search Ingest Job.

Use the Enterprise Scheduler Service job: Product Management Search Ingest Job to ingest the new range indicator and replace the existing range indicator:

Ingest Object = Item Structure
Object Type = Reference Designators
From Date = Enter a date
To Date = You can select the current date

After this job is completed, the Enterprise Scheduler Service job to run Bulk ingest to OSCS job starts automatically. When both jobs are completed, the range indicator will show the latest selected range indicator.

If the range indicator is enabled, you can see the configuration for quantity and the reference designators with the range indicator in the reference designator tab.

Here are some details of substitute components:

Search for the structure component based on the substitute component.
Click the item link to navigate to the item in the classic user interface.

Side Panel View in a Structure

The side panel appears when you click the presence indicators on the rows of a structure and provides you more information about the structure (component details). You can quickly navigate to the next or previous component row details without closing the side panel using the navigation buttons displayed in the drawer region.

Here’s the data you can view and actions you can take from the side panel:

In Product Development	In Product Information Management	Actions
Item Revision Attachments	Item Attachments Item Revision Attachments	Download attachments
Pending Changes	Pending Changes	Navigate to change orders or change requests
Quality	Quality	Navigate to open quality issues, quality actions, problem reports, and corrective actions
Product Development Relationships	NA	Navigate to related objects created in the Product Development work area
AML	NA	Navigate to manufacturer parts
Reference Designators	NA	View details of the reference designator. Search for specific reference designators
Substitute Components	NA	View details of substitute components

Notes on the side panel view:

Has Pending Change: Displays only pending change orders and change requests, not the released changes.
